Description:

In this episode, Kathryn, Misty, and Nancy talk with Beth Dolliver, one of Region 10's Instructional Designers. Beth shares that "Everyone is temporarily abled," and explains how accessibility is an equity issue. Since our work frequently includes blended learning formats, LMSs, and multi-media presentations, these ideas are especially important for meeting the needs of all learners (and their families!)

Start to make your work more accessible:

  • Use contrasting colors in slides, documents, etc.
  • Make certain the font sizes can be increased.
  • Use less text per slide.
  • Check your work using screen readers.
  • Use the style guides (i.e. titles and headers).
  • Check to see if your work is keyboard friendly.
  • Accessibility checklist
